Thinking of selling in the new year? Start here before the rush (aff)

Homeowners are advised to take early steps like valuations and repairs to sell faster and protect prices during the new-year property rush, Purplebricks experts say.

  • This year, homeowners are advised to start preparing their properties ahead of the new-year rush to sell sooner and protect their asking price amid rising buyer interest.
  • An early valuation and organised paperwork help you plan affordability and timing, as buyers and valuers expect planning permissions, building regulations certificates, warranties, guarantees and an Energy Performance Certificate.
  • Prioritise decluttering and temporary furniture storage to show space, as sellers' simple tasks like fresh paint, fixed handles and resealed joins prevent neglect and reassure buyers during rooms and viewings.
  • Getting an early valuation clarifies how much you can afford next, as many homeowners have more equity than they realise; organising paperwork and basic fixes can prevent completion delays and protect asking price.
  • Purplebricks pairs local experts with online tools so sellers retain control, offering free valuations online or with a local expert, while NationalWorld discloses affiliate links and possible commissions.
